Why join a Small Group?

Small Groups at New Hope O’ahu are great places to connect and to grow. The purpose of these groups are to be an ’Ohana with a cause - to be a place where people:

Grow spiritually
Grow relationally
Care for each other
Explore purpose in life

This purpose echoes New Hope Core Value #4 In Keeping with the Great Commandment, we believe every member should commit to a lifestyle of consistent spiritual growth with honest accountability.

A genuine love for God is always the first priority. Every Christian should yearn for continual spiritual growth. Therefore, discipleship through small groups, accountability, and open honesty is critical to maturing in our faith. (Mark 12:29-31; Acts 2:44-47; 1 Peter 2:2; 1Timothy 4:7, 8; Proverbs 27:17)

What Small Groups does New Hope O'ahu offer?

Life Devotional groups: 2 – 10 people who meet to read the Bible together, write their Journals and share their devotions with the group. Click here for more info on Journaling.

Care Groups: Groups of 3 – 20 people who meet generally in a home but also meet at places outside the home. These groups have prayer, fellowship and Bible Study. They may use resources like DVD teachings or Spiritual Growth type books. Our Rebuilders Groups falls under this banner. Rebuilders groups are our “recovery focused” groups.

Interest/Hobby Groups: These groups include sports groups, hobby groups – any group that has a common affinity and passion. We ask these groups to include prayer, sharing devotions because 80 plus percent of their time is focused on their affinity.
